It works without any issues on my system:
0x71D5:0x1043:0x1242 M66-P [Mobility Radeon X1700], i686 GNU/Linux


But the XAA (and especially EXA) are slow - for EXA, at 1440x900 resolution, 
after minimizing full-screen Konsole, the redrawing of icons on the desktop 
takes about 1 second. Jerky dragging of window by its titlebar also displays 
redrawing artifacts (ShadowFB has them too, but it is faster - "Konsole 
minimization test" :) passes OK ).

The top by speed is:
1) ShadowFB
2) XAA
3) EXA

Let me know if you need some real tests to be done (and how to do them).

Best regards, Kirill
